The antenna incorporates a cross-plate structure which is seated at the base of the monopole antenna.

A Study on the Optimal Magnetic Beam Forming of Coil Arrays for Long Distance Wireless Power Transmission.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless power transfer (WPT) technology which employs multiple transmitter (TX) coils to simultaneously couple power to the receiver (RX) coil has proved to be an effective technique to enhance power transfer efficiency (PTE). Conventional MIMO-WPT systems rely on the phase-calculation method based on the phased-array beam steering concept to constructively combine the magnetic fields induced by the multiple TX coils at the RX coil. However, increasing the number and distance of the TX coils in an attempt to enhance the PTE tends to deteriorate the received signal at the RX coil.

Novel coil design and analysis for high-power wireless power transfer with enhanced Q-factor.

The power transfer efficiency (PTE) is a crucial aspect for effective wireless power transfer (WPT) applications. The quality factor (Q) of the WPT coil plays a critical role in ensuring higher PTE. In this paper, a novel method of improving the Q of a WPT coil is proposed.

Monopole Antenna with Enhanced Bandwidth and Stable Radiation Patterns Using Metasurface and Cross-Ground Structure.

In this paper, a printed monopole antenna with stable omnidirectional radiation patterns is presented for applications in ocean buoy and the marine Internet of Things (IoT). The antenna is composed of a rectangular patch, a cross-ground structure, and two frequency-selective surface (FSS) unit cells. The cross-ground structure is incorporated into the antenna design to maintain consistent monopole-like radiation patterns over the antenna's operating band, and the FSS unit cells are placed at the backside of the antenna to improve the antenna gain aiming at the L-band.
